Hi Guys,
I am trying to make a reusable DecoratedButton component (extension of
wicket Button), which would draw itself with appropriate icon, color, and
other styles, based on the provided ButtonType, an enum e.g. 'Save', 'Edit',
'Delete', 'Search', 'Cancel' etc...
I am trying to find solution to; how to encapsulate the html (associated
with the button) in the form of wicket component to get the desired look &
feel. The html that represents the button is as below:
<div class="buttons">
<button type="submit">
./resources/Save.png Save
</button>
</div>
The html-button as you see above is encapsulated in a '<div>' tag. The
Button component (DecoratedButton) I am making, I want the user to use the
html <button> tag to attach the component to (instead of using <div> which
is the container tag in my implementation), as that is only intuitive, when
using a Button component.
Ok, so here is my question, how can i prefix/post-fix <div> tag or any other
tag, around the html <button> tag to which the new DecoratedButton component
will be attached to. I did think about the option of renaming the '<button>'
tag to '<div>' using setName in OnComponentTag() method, and than
appending/injecting the remaining html within it (e.g. the Button itself).
But than what if the user has any other behaviors/style/attributes attached
to the button component, how would gather all those attributes from it to
the new button tag html i inject with the <div>..? It doesn't seem like the
right way to go ?
Any ideas/thoughts ?
Thanks in advance,
Farhan.
